Title: ‘Russian Propaganda’ Is The Latest Excuse To Expand Censorship

“I’m concerned about Russian disinformation spreading online, so today I wrote to the CEOs of major tech companies to ask them to restrict the spread of Russian propaganda,” US Senator Mark Warner tweeted on Friday.

Since then YouTube has announced that it has suppressed videos by Russian state media channels so that they’ll be seen by fewer people in accordance with its openly acknowledged policy of algorithmically censoring unauthorized content, as well as de-monetizing all such videos on the platform. Google and Facebook/Instagram parent company Meta both banned Russian state media from running ads and monetizing on their platforms in response to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. Twitter announced a pause on ads in both Russia and Ukraine.

“Glad to see action from tech companies to reign in Russian propaganda and disinformation after my letter to their CEOs yesterday,” Warner tweeted on Saturday. “These are important first steps, but I’ll keep pushing for more.”

For years US lawmakers have been using threats of profit-destroying consequences to pressure Silicon Valley companies into limiting online speech in a way that aligns with the interests of Washington, effectively creating a system of government censorship by proxy. It would appear that we’re seeing a new expansion of this phenomenon today.

Everything I am seeing is propaganda.

There is not one thing I am seeing on the mainstream media that isn’t propaganda. I would personally go to Ukraine just to find the truth if I could because all that I see, looks pretty phony. Everything after 9-11 here in the US, made me skeptical of everything. Because there is nothing the media does better than inflate the fears of Americans while pretending to feed them hope.

It’s bad all the time in the world and it’s because of so many shitposters and phony journalists writing about events that they were never a part of. That is why we have no integrity in our. Media because all they do is report the news they are told to, and if you are watching a news program, it does not matter if it is local or national, their words are exactly the same, and spoken at nearly the exact same times.

So this here is not really news to me. The powers that be have always wanted the control it would take to silence the truth before it was ever spoken. It is why nobody can tell the truth without being canceled. Speaking of. How is Joe Rogan doing these days? He’s another guy who got with the program too. Spotify and it’s off shoot Anchor started sending out warnings to people for doing simple impressions. I did an impression of Alex Jones on my podcast and was sent a warning.

THAT, is how bad things are becoming with the strangling of free speech.

This is a double evil because beyond claims of Russian interference in US elections etc Russia is factually a giant cancerous growth.

Russia is divine. Putin is thrilling -- a top expert on the art of living. Genocide makes a groovy spectator sport.
